Tybalt (Adam von Almen) and Roméo (Manuel Castillo) have words before they fight in the University of Kentucky Opera Theatre production of Roméo et Juliette. Castillo plays Roméo in the second and third shows. Gregory Turay has the role in the other two.
Graduate students will perform “Romeo and Juliet,” but University of Kentucky Opera is definitely professional grade. Also this weekend, a one-woman show by Academy Award-winning actress Cloris Leachman at the Norton Center and a performance of “Firebird” by the Lexington Ballet at Lexington’s Lyric Theater. The Lexington Herald Leader’s Rich Copley offers this preview.
